Detroit-Submarine sandwich chain Tubby's, facing
growing competition from Denver-based Quizno's and St.
Louis-based Panera Bread, is planning for battle on its home turf.
The latter two food chains have nearly doubled their number of
stores in the Detroit area over the past year. In response,
Tubby's has changed its look with high ceilings and a colorful
interior, and has added pizza to its menu to attract a larger
dinner crowd. This new design and menu will be the prototype for
all future restaurants, but are not required of existing ones.
